i was just looking at some pics of a chunky trail and wanted to see what is the chunkest trail people have ever ridden. (not jumps, skinnies, etc, just pure rock-ridden, non-stop chunkage)

the top 3 i have experienced are:

1. goat camp (phoenix)
2. orginal sin (whistler)
3. tunnel (santa barbara)

Anything in Phoenix, the place is like mars, everything is rock. South Mountain has some stuff that will leave you wondering what you were thinking to get yourself into this. I don't have any pics of my own handy, but I found these in the Turner forum which should give you some idea.

Holbert Trail: This is our regular downhill run, why anyone in their right mind would want or try to ride up it is beyond me, but it is fun to fly down. Point and shoot, Point and shoot...

Tower and Saddlerock - both own all mentioned.
those are probably real steep right? i'm not ranking by steep, been on plenty of super steep stuff in laguna and north shore. just looking for the longest rockiest possible trail people have ridden.

but yea, could you pm about those, i know they are kinda secret, i'd love to ride them though. thanks

ill vouch for that!

i remember riding it in the absolute pouring rain after Domination Race #3. It was raining so hard that you couldnt wear goggles and it didn't even have a chance to get muddy. Man was that fun!
I think I rolled down that entire trail on my face....:thumbsup: definatly gnarr-core
